A rumpus room just may be the most fun place in any home. It's a place used for games, it can get loud, and it most definitely gets a lot of foot traffic all at once. There are many options to consider, and it comes down to your space. So if you're looking for the perfect rug for your rumpus room, we have several guidelines to follow.

The rumpus room is a high-traffic area, so selecting the best material makes sense. If you want to go for a synthetic rug, polypropylene is the best option as it is stain-resistant and easy to clean. Polyester is another excellent option because it is resistant to fading, water-based stains, and dries quickly. If you want to go with a natural fibre rug, wool and jute are great durable options.
There are many great options for placing a rug in a rumpus room. It largely depends on what items and furniture you have in the space. These rooms typically demand multiple rugs, and by doing so, you can define each activity or area within the room. A common theme in rumpus rooms is to have things like a pool table or a foosball table. Rugs provide an excellent opportunity to define these spaces by placing a rectangular rug centred underneath the items. If you have a couch in your room, you'll need to figure out the best placement for a rug in that area. We have a Rug Placement Guide that can help you figure out the perfect-sized rug and placement based on what type of couch you have.
Depending on the purpose of the rug, you'll need different sizes. Runners can be used to divide spaces, and area rugs can be used to define spaces. If you have tables, games, or couches in the room, you'll need to measure those items to figure out the best size rug for those areas. If you want one rug to encompass the majority of the space, just make sure you leave 18 inches of bare floor between the rug, and its adjacent walls.
A rumpus room is a fun and creative place, so why not highlight that with your rug? Plus, it gets a lot of foot traffic, so a bold or patterned rug can be a great option to find any dirt that the rug may come into contact with. Of course, you may want your space to have a more elegant feel, and if that's the case, we have a Rug Colour Guide you can check out to understand how to match or contrast your rug to your already decorated space.
